lorry driver in UK lied to his family for 15 YEARS telling them that he was an SAS hero tortured in Iraq - and his wife died of cancer still believing him

Mark Izzard (pictured top) - of Waltham Cross, Hertfordshire - pretended to his family and friends that he was a decorated SAS veteran who'd been tortured and blown up while fighting in Iraq. But actually, he only drove lorries. The 44-year-old lied to partner Tracey for 15 years that he'd fought for his country and had his knee obliterated in battle. To perpetuate the lie he posed for 'official' photographs in a fancy dress beret while gripping a BB gun, and posted an image on Facebook of genuine Para Lee Crichton (bottom) jumping from a plane, pretending it was him. Izzard even sent himself letters through the post confirming his discharge from the SAS, which he asked his wife to open, as he manufactured an entirely fictional past for almost two decades. Tracey died in 2012, believing she was married to a genuine British hero.now the truth has been revealed that this guy was not a decorated SAS but a lorry driver.now we are asking,what kind of punishment should he receive?(mailonline)
